For Graduate/PG Level. The book presents a comprehensive study of important topics of Mechanics for students of pure and applied sciences, particularly students of B.Sc. (Pass and Honours) and Engineering in a brief, coherent and lucid manner. This book is prepared as per the present syllabi for UGC and the syllabi of most of the Indian Universities. The topics are so selected that the book covers mostly every aspect of Mechanics. Vector notations are used throughout the book which is a special feature of the book. Large number of solved examples, based on SI system of units are given at the end of each chapter. articlewise.
